Visual Studio–What’s wrong with this picture?

Simon and I think this is stoopid. Do you know why?

The "Rob Miles" don't create building errors?? :)

[SurlyDev]

The whole point of running something in VS is to test changes just made. Why would you want to run the last version ?

[Scimac]

Why would you want to stop the build error dialogue box showing when there's a build error?

[Miguel]

Well, 2 things:
1. You get this dialog even if there is no previous successful build
2. It is about Errors when it displays the infomation icon rather than the more apropriate Error icon.

i would say the main problem here is that you havnt turned off that useless dialogue box in the VS settings...

its one of the first things i do...

[Duncan]

I agree with SurlyDev and Miguel.

[Andrew]

(a) almost nobody will ever want to say yes so it's daft to show this dialog by default.
(b) if you check the "do not show again" option and then mistakenly click Yes you'll be forced to go hunting through the morass of VS options to switch it off.

If I were to 'continue' I'd be running the unsuccessful code, not running an earlier verion as it goes on to say.
